I lost 186 lbs three years ago and am struggling to keep the weight off.

I found this site while looking for other maintainers and resources for us. I'm trying to figure out how your challenges work, because they might be pretty useful. Most of my online activity has been with the community of maintainers at SparkPeople.com

Maintenance is a Very Serious and Difficult Issue. 5% of people who lose weight manage to keep it off. I am doing EVERYTHING in my power to be one of them. Some days are better than others, but it really does seem that the key is frequent monitoring and immediate correction. It is important to NEVER give up.

There was a good point made that baked sweet potatoes probably have more starch than lentils. I have a baked sweet potato maybe once a month, as a treat. It would be hard to consider lentils a treat, hahaha.

Veggies are great. Legumes are not.
Even legumes that are "fresh" still have way more starch in them than I can handle in my own parameters. I don't consider them as 'green vegetables' (they may be green, but they're a far cry from real leafy greens, LOL)
